Im guessing they knew or they are making banjo-threeie thriee theie?But microsoft didnt let them add what they wanted to do so they left.The question isWhy did rare accept microsofts offer for buying them?

I have no doubt Playtonic knows. Gavin and Chris I'm pretty sure have said they knew what Rare was up to, and their Rare friends have stopped into Playtonic's office, and all is well as a relationship between them.

It kind of seems like both sides have developed a love hate relationship with each other.

The older fans are like "come on. You KNOW what we want. Why do you play with mah feelz."

Rare is like "we want to do our own thing."

Fans know what they want and, are willing to give multiple chances for redemption.

Rare knows what their fans want but, for some reason they WILL not do it.Tbh this is Rares time to make good on 15 years of fan dissatisfaction. The future doesn't look good either. The weakest gun in Goldeneye goes on record stating that if there is a new Perfect Dark: it will be a story driven non fps.

Probably time for Ken Lobb to just get out of the kitchen. Bye Felicia.

Because this is what we want?They KNOW what we want they don't care.

Thank God for Playtonic.And thank God for Bethesda and Fallout 4 for giving consumers what we were looking for.

It was obvious anyway I don't know why you all believed the rumours. When playtonic said "fans will be satisfied with what rare is doing" and NOT "fans will be over the moon with what rare is doing" it makes it obvious.
